The Dress

A breathtaking mermaid gown that comes to life in glittering, three-dimensional flowers that crystalize along the plunge neckline, gather at the waist, and cascade down a skirt delicately dotted with streams of threaded embroidery.

Pronovias Aethra Wedding dress with mermaid cut, sweetheart neckline and open back. The bodice is lined (i.e. not see through as per the online photos) and boned. There is also an in built bra for additional support.

Dress has been worn once and professionally cleaned. Comes with detachable off the shoulder straps.

This is an unaltered size 10 other than the length and adding bra cups. I am a 5 foot 3 but this was worn with platform high heels.

I paid £2,900 for the dress + £100 for the sleeves + alteration

I tried on a variety of similar dresses to this but the boning in the body made this dress fit so well and meant that it felt secure. The detail on the dress is also extremely flattering and I felt fantastic in this dress.

Alterations

The dress has been taken up - I am 5 foot 3 and was wearing circa 4 inch heels.

There were also bra pads added and detachable sleeves (these can be attached with poppers)
